We have to speak truth to power and condemn Trump’s Venezuela attack

Michael Byers

LONDON, ENGLAND - JANUARY 05: Protesters with a "Hands off Venezuela" sign gather as they demonstrate against the United States' intervention in Venezuela, on January 05, 2026 in London, United Kingdom. On Saturday the US carried out strikes in the capital, Caracas, and elsewhere in the country, culminating in the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, First Lady Cilia Flores. The couple were taken to the US and indicted on drug trafficking-related charges. Maduro has previously denied allegations of being linked to drug cartels, and accused the US of making the claims as justification to depose him and take control of Venezuela's substantial oil reserves. In a press conference following the attack, US President Donald Trump said the US would "run" Venezuela until a "judicious transition" could take place, and that US oil companies would "fix" the country's oil infrastructure. Critics have accused the US of violating Venezuela's sovereignty in a breach of international law. (Photo by Carl Court/Getty Images)
